Mathematics as a discipline has a long history, emerging from many cultures, with a truly universal character. Mathematicians throughout the world have a fundamentally common understanding of the nature of mathematics and of its central problems and methods. Research mathematicians in any part of the world are part of a cohesive intellectual community that communicates fluently.Among organizations devoted to mathematics education, The International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI) is distinctive because of its close ties to the mathematics community. The great challenges now facing mathematics education around the world demand a deeper and more sensitive involvement of disciplinary mathematicians than we now have, both in the work of educational improvements and in research on the nature of teaching and learning.

This book presents cutting-edge research and applications of deep learning in a broad range of medical imaging scenarios, such as computer-aided diagnosis, image segmentation, tissue recognition and classification, and other areas of medical and healthcare problems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Breast Imaging, IWDM 2014, held in Gifu City, Japan, in June/July 2014. The 24 revised full papers and 73 revised poster papers presented together with 6 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 122 submissions.

In these meetings, which were held in honour of Professor Tosio Kato on his retirement, the focus was on the interplay of functional analysis and partial differential equations. Thus, the study of Schrodinger operators, from the viewpoints of evolution equations and spectral theory, is one major subject, while functional analytic studies of nonlinear PDEs, including Navier-Stokes, KdV and other equations, constitutes another main theme. Papers on these linear and nonlinear problems are linked through their methods and types of approach.
